Multi-Fiber MPO based Switch Module (4100 Series)

Well suited for use in high-density fiber environments, multi-fiber MPO cables eliminate the expense of running individual patch cords for each service turn-up. Widely used in Data Center interconnects, MPO cables are spreading into telecom access applications such as FTTH, FTTA or C-RAN. The use of an MPO switch is the best way to accurately and quickly characterize individual fibers of an MPO cables with an OTDR. 

Benefits

• All-in-one, integrated solution for multi-fiber MPO cable characterization, certification and troubleshooting
• Supports multi-fibers via fan-out/break-out cable or direct MPO connectivity
• SLM software applications (Enterprise-SLM or Cable-SLM) allows testing in Numbering mode (8, 12 or others) or in Labelling mode and automates test workflow, certification and reporting

Applications

• Data Center single-mode structured cabling
• Passive Optical Network (PON) / FTTH / Access Networks MPO trunks
• Wireless Fronthaul (FTTA/C-RAN) MPO fiber cables

Key Features
